pollo tropical balsamic tomato salad copycat recipe

You know who’s not getting any more of my coins?

Pollo Tropical.

Yep.

I don’t need them anymore.

I can pull my own pork with ease. (thank you, crock pot)

And now I can make my favorite side at home on my own… and … dare I say… It’s better than Pollo Tropical’s version!

Don’t ask me for exact measurements, cuz your girl doesn’t operate that way, but here’s my version of the easiest bbq side dish in the world:




Pollo Tropical Balsamic Tomato Copycat Recipe

Ingredients:

  • Tomatoes
  • Red Onions
  • Brown Sugar (orĀ agave nectar…or white sugar if you don’t care)
  • Balsamic Vinegar
  • Olive Oil
  • Salt/Pepper

Directions:

Rinse and chop your tomatoes to your desired size and pop in a bowl

fresh red diced tomatoes

Thinly slice your red onions and add it in

tomato and red onion

Sprinkle on salt, pepper, sugar, and pour a lil balsamic vinegar and olive oil on top

tomato onion balsamic olive oil sugar

Mix it together and let it hang out for a few hours (best if overnight)

balsamic tomato recipe ingrediates all mixed together

I forgot to take a pic of it the day after before we actually ate it this time.

You’ll have a lot more liquid and it’ll be all yummy and flavorey. At that point you can taste and season to your liking.

IF you want you can sprinkle on some italian seasoning or somethingĀ but I kinda like to keep this super plain since we usually eat it with really flavorful and spicy meats.

So there you have it. Healthy, yummy and generally clean. Sorry Pollo Tropical, see ya never!

What’s your easy go-to side dish?

    I love salad like this one with all the fresh tomatoes I still have coming off the vine. I need to make this for my Dad and sister and I. We love Balsamic Vinegar in recipes and this is such a healthy one!

    Looks great. I think I’ll go with the agave nectar option if I try it.
